The purpose of this study is to examine the gifted education system in North Korea. The study analysed various literature, articles, and internet resources concerning education in general and gifted education in North Korea. The findings of the study are as follows: First, in recent years North Korea has emphasized gifted education to advance the level of science and technology, especially in the field of information technology and computer science. Second, North Korea already introduced the gifted education system by establishing music schools, foreign language schools, art schools, dance schools, and athletics schools in 1960. Third, North Korea has established special schools for the gifted in science since 1984. The schools play an important role in advancing the country's science and technology. Fourth, in North Korea there are special courses in colleges and universities for the gifted in various fields. Fifth, North Korea has implemented the consistent and interrelated system of gifted education from kindergarten level to higher education level.

This study aims to identify the effects of teachers' recognition and application of 2015 revised national curriculum on their educational information needs in high schools. Several in-depth interviews and a questionnaire survey with the teachers, who were in charge of teaching common courses, such as Korean language, mathematics, English, social studies, and science, in general public high schools in Incheon, were executed for the purpose. As a result, the teachers' recognition and application affected their educational information needs in part. Especially, new demands on small sized copies and learning information sources were identified which were related to the application of 2015 revised national curriculum. Based on the results, we proposed several improvements of school library operations, such as small sized local consortium for sharing resources and providing referral services, in order to strengthen the gateway role of school libraries.

In the era of the 4^th industrial revolution and convergence, various discussions and studies have been conducted to develop future social talents, and through this, the need for creative convergence talents is increasing. In line with the change to a software-oriented society, countries around the world are trying to strengthen SW education, but high school students' awareness of the necessity of information subject and SW education that is the center of convergence is insufficient. Therefore, opportunities for convergence of the information subject and various fields should be provided. In this study, information education was converged to the science exploration experiment subject to construct an educational program that can develop creative convergence, and a convergence class using physical computing were applied to high school students for 9 hours. As a result of the experiment, the recognition of SW education of the experimental group was improved, and it was confirmed that the learner's convergence literacy of the experimental group was statistically different from that of the control group that conducted the general science experiment class.

With the rising interest in intelligence information technology built on artificial intelligence and big data technologies, all countries in the world including advanced countries such as the United States, the United Kingdom, Japan and so on, have launched national investment programs in preparation for the fourth industrial revolution centered on the software industry. Our country belatedly recognized the importance of software and initiated the 2015 revised educational curriculum for elementary and secondary informatics subjects. This paper thoroughly analyzes the new educational curriculum for information science in high schools and, then, suggests improvements in the areas of information ethics and multimedia. The analysis of the information science curriculum is applied to over twenty science high schools and schools for gifted children, which are expected to play a leading role in scientific research in our country. In the future artificial intelligence era, in which our dependence on information technology will be further increased, information ethics education for talented students who will play the leading role in making and utilizing artificial intelligence systems should be strongly emphasized, and the focus of their education should be different from that of the existing system. Also, it is necessary that multimedia education centered on digital principles and compression techniques for images, sound, videos, etc., which are commonly used in real life, should be included in the 2015 revised educational curriculum. In this way, the goal of the 2015 revised educational curriculum can be achieved, which is to encourage innovation and the efficient resolution of problems in real life and diverse academic fields based on the fundamental concepts, principles and technology of computer science.

본 논문에서는 게임그래픽 교육의 차별화를 위한 학습도구의 하나로 MOD형 게임을 이용한 학습방법을 도입하였다. MOD형 게임이란 수정 변형(Modification)이 가능한 게임이란 의미로, 그래픽 학습자들이 직접 작업한 소스를 게임에 적용해 볼 수 있는 기능을 제공하는 소프트웨어로 게임 그래픽의 특성을 이해하는데 필요한 실질적인 경험을 제공할 수 있다. MOD형 게임의 활용은 기존의 추상적 개념의 이론적 학습에서 불가능했던 실제적이고 구체적인 적용을 기반으로 하고 있기 때문에, 학습 효과와 게임그래픽 교육 방식과의 차별화를 가져온다.

교육과학기술부는 2006년에 학교교육에 새로운 패러다임의 변화를 받아들이는 방법으로 디지털교과서의 사용을 시도하였다. 2007년 이후 일부 초등학교에서 디지털교과서가 시범적으로 운영 되었으며 2015년 초중고등학교 모든 교과서를 디지털 교과서로 변환을 발표하였다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이에 대처하기 위해 디지털 교과서의 서비스 구성, 구조, 시스템, 플랫폼등에 대해 분석하고 향후 발전 방향을 연구 한다.

Purpose : The purpose of this study is to investigate the material in middle school and high school textbooks covering child care and children's health for medically inaccurate content and to make sure that the correct information is given to students. Methods : We have examined 47 kinds of textbooks on the subjects 'Home economics' and 'Technology and home economics' published in 2007 to find out how much importance is placed on children's health and childcare and to search for incorrect definitions, inaccurate facts or insufficient explanations. We have also analyzed the credentials of the writers of these textbooks. Results : Textbooks of middle school cover psychological and physical changes during adolescence and nutrition, and those of high school cover marriage and childcare. These materials covering health made up 27.5%, 11.7% of middle & high school texts. Age definitions of neonate and infant were incorrect. Inaccurate facts were mostly about fontanelles, primitive reflexes, breastfeeding and weaning. There also were wrong informations on the umbilical cord care and developmental milestones during infancy. The childhood immunization schedules and the growth curves were not up to date. Most of the authors major in home economics and the others were school teachers. There was no evidence of any review by a medical society or an expert. Conclusions : When writing about children's health and childcare in textbooks, a board-certified pediatrician or The Korean Pediatric Society should be consulted to provide accurate medical information to middle and high school students.

우리는 지금 정보화 사회로의 변화를 시작하고 있다. 이 변화에 대처하기 위해서는 먼저 고등학교 교과과정에 컴퓨터를 정식교과로 넣고 이것을 대학입시에 반영하는 일이다. 두번째로는 초고속 정보통신망을 외국보다 빨리 까는 일이다. 그리고 아직도 저개발수준인 소프트웨어 육성에 최선을 다해야 할 것이다.

최근의 개정된 7차교육과정의 '정보' 교과에서는 기존의 컴퓨터활용위주 교육대신에 컴퓨터과학과 문제해결능력을 강조하는 내용으로 개편되었다. 이 교육 과정은 2010년 중학교 1학년부터 적용하여 2013년 고등학교 3학년까지 단계적으로 적용할 계획에 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 개정된 '정보' 교육과정의 내용에 관련 있는 '초 중등학교 정보통신기술 교육 운영지침'의 내용을 중등학생이 어느 정도 파악하고 있으며, 4단계의 영역('정보사회의 생활', '정보기기의 이해', '정보처리의 이해', '정보가공과 공유')과 '종합 활동'의 학습 내용간에 인지도의 차이를 분석한다. 이 분석 결과를 바탕으로 현재 일선학교에서 시행되고 있는 '초 중등학교 정보통신기술 교육 운영지침'의 운영상의 문제점을 학생인지도 측면에서 지적하고 이의 개선점을 제시하고자 한다.
